Seeing Inglis slide across the field face first in slow motion was the funniest thing.  I thought he'd never stop.

Campese, Furner and the raiders crowd all crying about the ref.

Campese needs to learn to keep his mouth shut; Harrigan would have binned him within 20 minutes.

I just said that to my daughter  :lol:
Did anyone else think he had a Braveheart moment after that try with the paint on his face??  ;-) ;D

On Campese - he's one of the worst captains I've seen! Isn't he the one who's supposed to be controlling his players and not being a hot-head? Reminds me of Wayne Campbell from Richmond a few years ago....

Ohhhh another Wayno hater?? He still is such a deeck!  ;D
I just think a captain should keep his own head and be able to control his players, show some restraint, guys who run straight into the fray are NOT captain material.

Campese went a tad overboard tonight. He needs to pick his moments. I don't have a problem witha player wanting to fly the flag. Campbell seemed to always fly the rainbow flag (not that there is anything wrong with that).

I know it hurt him but did anyone find it funny when he landed that he came up looking like he has Aboriginal war paint all over his face.  :P

Am more than happy with that effort. That was a bloody tough game. The forwards were going at it hammer & tongue all game. We were far better with our conversion rate over a Raiders team who kept dropping it at important times. We were lucky with the second try as Inglis did look offside, but I reckon the Dugan try was a knock before he grounded it. (How come the commentators couldn't see it? ???) Easy for us to say that after watching the replay.

Good to see BOTH Whitey & Manu playing in the navy together again as well.

PS:- Does anyone think Adam Blair has an attitude problem at all? He refused to come when the ref called him & was pulling faces after a penalty against him.  ???

Adam Blair seems to push things too far too often.  He seems to get away with it more often than not, though - so I don't know.

While on Blair - did Campese have a death wish trying to go him?  Not the kind of guy you'd want to mess with.

He does push the boundaries quite a bit, but seriously that penalty was the fault of Lima, wasn't much Blair could've done about that one.

What I want to know was why we didn't get a penalty when Hoffy was raised above the horizontal and to add insult to injury the Raiders player then gave Hoffy a facial with his forearm!

The Canberra crowd were giving the ref heaps? Did they not notice that the penalty count was very much in their favour, 6 to 2 I think it ended up.

I think he's got an "I don't care" attitude at the moment.  He always had the niggles - hanging on a bit too long in the tackle etc. - but tonight he was a bit over the top with the stupid "naughty boy" face after the ref spoke to him.  Admittedly, I laughed but we're already being seen as arrogant so I'd hate to see him cause more angst with that sort of behaviour.
